We’re
snagging perfect pout ideas from our fave red-carpet rockstars, Emma, Taylor
and Selena. Summer’s all about easy beauty and perfect pairings. So whether you
wanna go nude, hot pink or vibrant red, we’ve got your instant style guide.
Read on!
First, some tips on how to prep your pout and apply your lip color!
Tip 1: Use a lip scrub or a mixture of sugar and
olive oil to get rid of any flaky pieces on your pucker.
Tip 2: Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize! Use a lip balm to make sure your lips don’t
dry out.
Tip 3: When applying your lip color, use a lip brush
to make sure you don’t end up with bright pink on your teeth and face!
Punchy pink
Emma
Stone totally works the bright pink lip look by keeping the rest of her makeup
neutral and toned down. Use a lil’ blush
to brighten up your cheeks so that your lip color doesn’t drain your
complexion. Next, sweep liquid liner on
your upper lids to define your eyes. You
can even try adding wings to your outer corners for a cool, Hollywood
look. Emma perfectly balances out her
bright lips with a fresh face and poppin’ eyes!

Natural beauty
Selena’s
got the natural look down, but adds some pop with colorful eyeliner. Apply a nude lipstick and bronzer to get a
glowy look. Then, line your eyes with
dark blue eyeliner to make your peepers pop!
Smudge it up a little bit, add some mascara and you’ll look glam and
natural all at the same time.

Taylor
Swift always knows how to get the perfect red-carpet look, and recently she’s
been workin’ ruby lips! The secret to red lips is to keep everything else
simple, making your lips the focus of your makeup. Add some blush/bronzer to keep your natural
flush. Taylor added heavy lashes and
liner for big drama, but you can tone it down with just liner on your upper
lash line and a swipe of mascara.
Taylor’s secret for sparkling eyes?
Shimmery white liner in her inner corners. Try a soft pencil and lightly smudge to get
glowy!
